Horsefood AlfaLux Cubes

The Van Gorp Horsefood AlfaLux Cube is a natural feed based on alfalfa and grass hay, enriched with Bentonite and Sainfoin. The high fibre content (30.4%) stimulates a horse’s chewing movements and promotes saliva production, which is of optimal importance for horses to maintain a healthy balance of the stomach and intestines.

The AlfaLux Cube is a fibre-rich block that extends a horse’s eating time. It is ideal for horses that are bored or eaters who are greedy. It is also especially suitable for stress-sensitive horses that require extra protection for their stomachs. The low sugar, starch, and energy content makes this ration supplement suitable for any horse. It can also be given as a healthy reward.

Through the addition of a rich source of protein, the horse receives healthy building blocks that ensure muscle repair and development. The added Sainfoin is a valuable legume forage crop for horses, with very beneficial properties for a horse’s health. Bentonite is a type of clay known for its absorbent and binding properties and support of the intestinal wall.

The Van Gorp Horsefood AlfaLux Cube can be safely given to horses and ponies that need to be fed a grain-, molasses-, and gluten-free diet.
